Charles Fort Institute

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Fails WP:ORG. Organization has received no outside notice from anyone except themselves and fellow Fortean enthusiasts. ScienceApologist (talk) 10:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Merge We have plenty of articles on Fort-related subjects and deletion is a last resort - why was this brought to AfD? The material can be accommodated in the Charles Fort article, Fans and followers of Fort section. the skomorokh  11:58, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure it even belongs in the section of that article since it hasn't really received any outside notice. ScienceApologist (talk) 12:03, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I should have said the useful material, good catch. I'd imagine only a few lines would survive; the listing in the RS I added, the notable members, something basic cited to the institute itself. the skomorokh  15:56, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, little more than navel-gazing. Stifle (talk) 17:13, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep A merge might be okay too. But just because subjects are fringe doesn't mean they aren't encyclopedic. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:05, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, does not meet criteria for notability. --Lambiam 21:13, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
